    You are missing your video card specs, or is it integrated? The rest of your systems looks fine the defining thing thats going ot make all the difference though will be your video card capabilities. SC2 will run but the better the video the better your game will play.

    Given his laptop model, probably Intel Media Accelerator X3100. Uh, yeah, good luck with that. :rolleyes: It might actually be doable on 1024x768 Low given his processor can take up some of the slack.

    @SaiyanMan
    Your best bet is to get a StarCraft II Guest Pass from someone so you could actually try if it might be playable on your system.

    It probably will, assuming you turn down settings to the lowest. Pretty bad performance though given the iGPU is, well, awful. You'll probably want to steer clear of multi-player matches, too.

    I'd like to point there's a link in post #2 for a tool to evaluate if your system is more or less capable of running SC2.
